General Decorating

Your vision: A general decorating session requires a minimum of one-hour visit during which we discuss your style and requirements needed to achieve the look you have been dreaming of. You can share your Pinterest pins with me, or your favorite decorative magazines and we will work together to bring your vision to life.

Your budget: I will help you save money and time by working with your existing furnishings, taking into account your personal items and incorporating them into the design.

My expertise: I can assist you in choosing the right wall colors for your home, window treatments, placement of furniture for better traffic flow, wallpaper, rugs, light fixtures, decor items… Whether in your possession or new. Whatever is required to make your house a home.

If you do not have time, I can help you shop for the needed items.

If you decided to renovate, I can help you avoid costly mistakes, reduce stress and move forward a lot faster. Choosing the wrong material, color, texture, scale or style can produce the unwanted vision and negatively affect the value of your home. For example, new kitchen cabinets not working with the style of your home, wrong flooring type for traffic areas, siding and roof colors not matching the rest of your home’s exterior…

Home Staging

Your objective: Unlike general decorating, home staging is not about your vision. It is about selling your home faster and for a higher price. Professionally staged, your home can sell in half the time and for up to 20% more money.

An initial home staging session can last from 1 1/2 to 2hrs and includes a detailed home staging list of the steps required to properly stage your home.

Your budget: I will help you save money and time by working with your existing furnishings, suitable decor items and incorporating them into the design. Additional items and a fresh coat of paint might be needed to complete the staging. Since new items are needed for staging purposes only, their cost will be reasonable. Usually, the overall staging cost is less than 1% of the property’s market price.

My expertise: I will help you make your home appealing to the highest number of potential buyers.

I will identify where and what to declutter, the furnishings, window treatments, rugs and decor items to keep and the ones to remove, the cracks and nicks to be repaired, the color of walls that need to be painted and lighting to be replace or added.

When needed and within budget, I will shop for the items required to complete the space such as decorations, mirrors, prints, rugs and drapes.

I will also rearrange the furniture for proper flow and place the different items to complete the staging.

Airbnb Staging

Your objective: Airbnb staging is about maximizing rental revenues (price and occupancy) for your target market segment.

An initial Airbnb staging session lasts about 1hr and consists of a walk through consultation during which we discuss your target renter type, vision, rent objective and budget. It includes a detailed Airbnb staging list of the steps required to create a space that is appealing on Airbnb and renters feel at home.

Your budget: As with any other business, maximizing rental revenues requires investment.

When suitable, I will work with your existing furnishings and decor items. However, to achieve top return on your property and top ratings visible to Airbnb users, you will probably have to invest in some new furniture, decorating accessories and necessary amenities. A fresh coat of paint might also be needed.

My expertise: I will help you transform the look of your Airbnb to one that is attractive on Airbnb and maximizes satisfaction ratings.

I will identify where and what to declutter and depersonalize, the furnishings, window treatments, rugs and decor items to keep, the ones to remove and the ones to replace, the cracks and nicks to be repaired, the color of walls that need to be painted and lighting to be replace or added.

When needed and in line with your budget, I will shop for the items required to complete the space such as decorations, mirrors, prints, rugs and drapes.

I will also rearrange the furniture for proper flow and place the different items to complete the staging.
